Boo ...

More Halloweenie goodness today - in treat form!

I was playing around with "cool" color combintions (as opposed to warm combinations like red and orange) the other day and landed on purple, grey, and blue. Not really a traditional Halloween combo, but I think it sets a great tone for a spooky forest and a cute sparkling ghost.

I do love that little ghost, he's so stinkin' cute. You can also see in this shot that it all comes together on a great little brown paper bag!

This shot gives you a better look at how it all comes together: I trimmed the top of the bag to make it even, then cut cardstock to match the height and width of the bag. After that, I cut another piece for the back, adding a bit more length to make the flap that folds over on the front to close it. Attach the cardstock to the back and front of the back, a bit of ribbon to tie it all together, attach the stamped bit, and you've got one easy peasy, totally cute treat bag!
